Please be advised that Richmond Street (Victoria Row), between Queen Street and Great George Street, will be closed for the day on Thursday, April 27. This closure is necessary as four trees require removal in the area. The trees have major structural damage and would be a safety risk if they were not removed.

Sidewalks within the construction area will have limited access and traffic control personnel will be on-site to direct pedestrians. Businesses on Victoria Row will remain open as usual.

The Public Works Department apologizes for any inconvenience.
